Is there an official list of Randall Knife Dealers ?

I ask this because a fellow knife nut,on another forum,claims he has ordered a Randall Model 14 from a Randall dealer in Fayetteville,N.C.I believe I know all of the dealers sanctioned by Randall and I don't know of anyone in Fayetteville N.C.

These are the Dealer that I know:

Rick Bowles

Wayne Buxton

Tom Clinton

Jack Crider

Nordic Knives, Dave Harvey

Doug Kenefick

Capt. Chris Stanaback

Greg Gutcher

Blue Ridge Knives

That would be our Man Buck!

Buck Buchanan
Authorized Randall Dealer

There are several others.... Rick Ward, Spyderco, Duke down in Florida, Wayne in North Alabama, Smokey Mountain, I think.

Is Spyderco a "full service" dealer? The reason I ask is because of this statement posted on their website.

"Please be aware that Spyderco cannot custom order a Randall Made Knife for you. If you would like a custom made Randall Made Knife, please contact Randall Made Knives directly (currently there is a 5+ year waiting list)."

Maybe not... I thought they were, but.

Oh Buck Buchanan !

I really need to update my list.

Thanks for the reminder Tunefink.

Are there different types of dealers? Does Smoky Mountain take custom orders? I didn't know Smoky Mountain was a dealer.

Plaza Cutlery, A G Russell are a couple more I can think of

Peter

Plaza Cutley,yes I missed that and I do have that on my list.

If A.G Russell is an official dealer,then why does he sell his Randall knives for so much more than shop price?

Dealers can set their own price, only some dealers charge catalog price. You would have to ask them about the pricing

Peter

Not Smokey Mountain. They buy from me...and others. Blue Ridge Knives (Tommy Clark) in Va. is an authorized Randall dealer, selling at catalog price.
Hope this helps, Capt. Chris
